The Greatest Obstacle We Face - Kelly L Reading this essay is not much of an eye opener. I completely agree with everything the writer talks about. With class these last few weeks, we have been discussing the "obstacles" of American schooling, thus, I have been thinking about the topic a great deal. All of us have been through grade school, whether it was public or private, there was always at least one bad teacher. The same teacher the reading was talking about, the one who only does the minimum to get byand who everyone else has to pick up after. The teachers want to know how to make the students more interested in the curriculum that they are trying to teach. That has been the question for decades, but it seem impossible to find the solution to it. I believe that it truely depends on the student's willingness. If they want to learn, they will. But if they don't want to, they will put up a force field and the teacher won't be able to get through to them. It probaby depends on how the parents have raised the children, also. If the parents have raised them with the hunger to achieve and strivev for more, the students will be more willing to learn, especially in the classroom.
